Hezekiah Jones Opening for Samantha Crain at JB's Feb. 4

Hezekiah Jones Opening for Samantha Crain at JB's Feb. 4 Hezekiah Jones (a.k.a. Raph Cutrufello) and his family of Joneses are back on stage tonight at Johnny Brenda's with their reflective timeless sounds after a short hiatus. Hezekiah Jones latest offering Have You Seen Our Fort? exudes poppy, alt folk sounds that will surely have the crowd merrily tapping their feet, but the group can also awe you with some of the prettiest, earnest tunes this side of the Mason-Dixon Line. The band's music has so many layers, but it is a joy to peal them back to find at the core Cutrufello's rich vocals and heartfelt [...]

Valentiger Front Man Show Videos

Valentiger Front Man Show Videos Lots of exciting things have been happening on the home front these past couple of months whilst we've been gallivanting around New Zealand(thus the lack of daily posts). Perhaps the most exciting event on the local music scene in 2011 was the Valentiger Front Man Show - which took place in our home studio Stone House Recording . The ever-so talented Michael Knorr has started to put together videos from the show - with the always impressive Peter Fox providing the audio. [...]

Other Voices, Other Rooms: 5 Folkblogs to Follow in 2012 (w/ folk covers of Queen, Elvis Costello, Strand of Oaks and more!)

Other Voices, Other Rooms: 5 Folkblogs to Follow in 2012 (w/ folk covers of Queen, Elvis Costello, Strand of Oaks and more!) As I wrote just over a year ago in a 2-part feature on How To Be A Coverblogger [ Pt. 1 / Pt. 2 ], keeping a coverblog requires a touch of obsession, an itch to live the writing life, and a willingness to keep a keen eye on a select handful of trusted sources. But though we watch the other coverbloggers carefully throughout the year, we are folkies first and foremost here at Cover Lay Down. And - as we noted atop our year's end mix - some of the [...]

Samantha Crain: Breaking the Ice

Samantha Crain: Breaking the Ice Today we head to Oklahoma to sample the newest holiday compilation out of Norman. Local business Fowler VW has been hard at work creating a annual holiday album and concert concept, while Blackwatch Studios organized the album's production. This is Fowler VW's second free holiday album, following 2010's Checking It Twice. "Part of our shop's mission is to contribute to a community where local artists and musicians thrive," said Fowler VW General Manager Jonathan Fowler. "Through the annual album and concert, we're hoping to spread some holiday cheer and also spread the word that Oklahoma has some [...]

"I've always felt right about singing" : The Line of Best Fit meets Samantha Crain

"I've always felt right about singing" : The Line of Best Fit meets Samantha Crain Oklahoman native Samantha Crain sings of bygone days and simpler times, her music a blend of folk and country, her voice a tremulous force of nature. Crain's quirky interpretation of the genre helps her songs rise above the mundane, and her understanding and love of literature imbues the tracks on latest album You (Understood) with a clear narrative. Combined with her outstanding voice, the words and music on the album create a map of people and places she's encountered on her travels, but everything [...]

Toadcast #202 – The Saxcast

Toadcast #202 – The Saxcast First things first, I must inevitably apologise for the horrendous lateness of this podcast. Between my mum visiting, the gig on Sunday and the Samantha Crain Toad Session we recorded on Monday there just hasn't been enough time to catch up. It's that end of year time, too, when lists are being made, accounts submitted, the last releases of the year tended to and plans for next year being finalised, so just when I thought that I could coast into Christmas, it turns out I actually have just as much work now as at any other time of [...]

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 21st November 2011

Live in Edinburgh This Week – 21st November 2011 Well one thing's for sure, live in Edinburgh this week will very much not be me. I have a rather nasty flu/tonsillitis throat infection thingy (I'm not a doctor so I am not sure which, but you know the kind of thing I mean) and it means that swallowing is extraordinarily painful, even if it is gin. I am not sure that soaking the paracetamol in alcohol particularly aids in its efficacy either, but as I said, I am not a doctor. We, of course, have our next Ides of Toad gig on Sunday, when the [...]

Halfway House Sessions – Samantha Crain

Halfway House Sessions – Samantha Crain Photo by Andy McLeod. A while back - we were fortunate enough to capture three sessions in one day. It was in the midst of the Salt Tour with Chris Bathgate and Hezekiah Jones - both sessions which we've featured previously. Now - it's Ms Samantha Crain's turn. If this is your introduction to Samantha Crain's music - then you're in for a real treat as it's most certainly one of our favorite voices to come through the StoneHouse. She's currently on tour across [...]

Toadcast #201 – The Cakecast

Toadcast #201 – The Cakecast Cakecast? Yes, the Cakecast, because I turn thirty-six today, and in the absence of a real cake and in honour of the fact that I have a gig tonight at the Wee Red and will hence be working, I decided that at least a picture of some cake was in order. I don't worry about age particularly, but I have to confess that thirty-six sounds suspiciously more like 'nearly forty' than it does like 'thirty-something'. Curse you time and your unrelentingly linear nature! Anyhow, as I said, tonight we have Gummy Stumps , Weird Era [...]

Some Ides of Toad Updates

Some Ides of Toad Updates I keep fretting about over-pimping my commercial enterprises on this blog, but I really should just stop worrying. Putting on live shows is not much more than an extension of me insisting on telling you what sort of music to listen to, so really there's not much difference between haranguing you about your buying habits and haranguing you about what you do in your free time really, is there. So, after a fantastic gig with The Last Battle, Dad Rocks! and Shoes and Socks Off, and a brilliant day in Anstruther with Hott Toadzzz! it's probably time to [...]

Upcoming Ides of Toad Stuff

Upcoming Ides of Toad Stuff So, after the chaos of the Festival, we are back to normal service here in Ides of Toad HQ (which looks suspiciously similar to Song, by Toad HQ and bears a more than passing resemblance to Song, by Toad Records HQ). Actually, I thought I managed to get myself horribly waylaid by the Festival, but it turns out I have most of the Autumn's lineups already filled and ready to go, with only a few gaps here and there. This level of organisation rather shocks me, I have to confess, but I am sure I will find some [...]

This is Hezekiah Jones' Halfway House Session. Hezekiah Jones is actually a collection of Philadelphia area folk artists with Raphael Cutrufello leading the charge.
